• Technical visit organized (if possible, depending on the availability of the experimental facilities)

• On-field experience, case study and tutorials

• Lectures taught by international experts, including :

Dominique Bestion, Director of Research at CEA

He has been developing two-phase flow models for the CATHARE system code for 35 years, and has coordinated two-phase flow modelling in the NEPTUNE French multi-scale thermalhydraulics platform. He is chairman of the technical meetings of the FONESYS international network of code developers.

Florian Fichot, Expert at the Institut de Radioprotection et de Sûreté Nucléaire (IRSN)

He has been working for 25 years in the field of severe accidents. He contributed to the modelling of core degradation, thermal hydraulics and corium behaviour during the development of ICARE/CATHARE and ASTEC codes. He was coordinator of the IVMR European project (2015-2020). 

Etienne Studer, CEA International Expert in fluid mechanics and hydrogen risk issues

He has 30 years of experience working in the field of hydrogen risk in nuclear power plants, and has participated to international experimental programs, international working groups and state-of-the-art reports. He takes part to the “European Hydrogen Safety Panel”.
